Also- if anyone is trying to debug mfakto errors make sure to set Verbosity to 3 in the ini to show everything.

Do you mean it's not recognized or it does not run?
Because even though my vega 8 isn't recognized it still runs.


The device is recognized and calculation starts but fails.
To test if this is a driver issue I have replaced the Radeon 5500XT with an R9 380 and now the selftest is completed with success.

But now I can't get new work to test if "AMD with Linux x86_64" is running or not?!

I have managed to install the AMD 20.10 driver for linux and the Radeon 5500XT now passes the selftest without errors.

Can you please allow new work for linux boxes with AMD GPU?

Thanks.

results are failing:
13:20:23 (13094): wrapper: running ./mfakto-x64 ( -d 11 --device 0)

app_config.xml tells -d 11 but the argument --device 0 ist still there...

How can we deal with this?

could be the wrapper app. Can you test it standalone?
copy the zip folder somewhere, create a worktodo.txt file, put this into the file
Factor=78467119,70,71

run the app, if this is working then the boinc wrapper need a change.

I can do this around 18:00 UTC+2. Now it's time to visit the 80+ generation for Easter. (Corona social task force)

Message 6135 - Posted: 12 Apr 2020, 17:08:08 UTC - in response to Message 6133.

@Rebirther: I am sorry to read that.

Tests with worktodo.txt:
In the self compiled stuff: o.k. runtime about 8 min.
In the unpacked ZIP: Failure.

In the ZIP is contained: mfakto_Kernels.elf
This will work only for the specific hardware and Linux for what this file was compiled for. This file has to be deleted ... it will be compiled during runtime in the target system.

After deletion of mfakto_Kernels.elf the test is also running for the ZIP content.

I have made my own app_info.xml.....but project doesn't accept this.

ok, noticed, the app is deprecated again, you dont need to full run, for the wrapper test, rename the job.xxx.xml file to job.xml, put the factor again in the worktodo.txt and run the wrapper, if this is working we have tracked down the issue.

The same config as in test? We need to check both folders, your new compiled version with the current used.

I have extended the parameter list for mfakto. (and compiled)

You can download it frome here:
https://p-numbers.net/mfakto_linux_x86_64_device.zip

HTH

the new code snippet:
else if(!strcmp((char*)"--device", argv[i]))
{
if(i+1 >= argc)
{
printf("ERROR: no device number specified for option \"--device\"\n");
return ERR_PARAM;
}
else if (argv[i+1][0] == '0') // parse to 00
{
devicenumber = strtol("00",&ptr,10);
if(*ptr || errno || devicenumber != strtol("00",&ptr,10) )
{
printf("ERROR: can't parse <device number> for option \"--device\"\n");
return ERR_PARAM;
}
}
i++;

Are you sure that you have taken into account all possible combinations of these parameters?
- numbering platform / device (from one) and just a device (from zero).
- "ingenious" user config and trivial "-device 0" from wrapper
- or a simple conflict in the numbers of these parameters

a couple of examples for a logic test
( -d 11 --device 0)
( -d g --device 0)
( -d c --device 0)


can simply ignore (delete when analyzing arguments) the --device parameter in the presence of the -d parameter?

I'm really sorry to hear that.

Also, my device isn't recognized when mfakto is collecting device data unless I specify APU.

Even though your APU is not recognized, I think selecting APU will be slower than "AUTO" - kernels used on the APU settings were tested on much older, different APU's (if i recall correctly, that was tuned for A8-3850... released 2011.)

I'm hoping I can test the IGP of the Ryzen 2400g that I get occasional access to...
